Excessive weight in a carriage is just as sen sible as in an automobile. An automobile is necessarily heavier than a carriage, but only enough heavier to take care ot the fact that it and the power plant are self-contained. The lighter an automobile is the bet ter it will stand up and the easier it handles. Excessive weight it a weakness. It racks the vehicle, and makes unreasonable operating and repair expense.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1. The English rac ing season, wliicn begins early In tlie spring, will attract wlue attention in this country because of the large number of American horses that will participate. The decadence of racing here as a result of leg islation in various (tales, has resulted In many of the best American horses being shipped abroad, where the sport is unham pered. Anions the nromlnent owners who have sent hoi bos to England are James R. Keene, August Belmont and Harry wnuney, wnne scores of young horses purchased here by British sportsmen will make their appear ance on the tracks. Colon and Prlscllllan, two unbeaten racers, head the long list of American horses now preparing for the races on the other side. Other well known animals there Include Ballot. Fair Play, Dinna Ken, 8uf feragette, Wedding Bella. Sir Martin, which will try for tho Derby for his English owner: Bobbin, Mellsande, Helmet and Baby Wolf. That the English handlcapper holds a high estimate of the American bred runners Is evidenced from the fact that Ballot, Colin, Fair Play and Prlscllliun all are asked to carry In their engagements several pounds more than Llangam and Your Majesty, reckoned the best English horses of last year. Many of the big English atake races have ellglhles from the American Invading Hqutd. These include, besides the - Derby, the great English classic, the Ascot Hold Cup, the Great Jubilee handicap, the Lin colnshire handicsp. the Babrahn plate, the Metropolitan stakes, the Liverpool cup, the Great Burrey handicap, the Victoria cup. the Ecllpso stakea and the Jockey v Club fttakea. ... ,. , . ... , ' . .., BOWLERS .'

Glllan Belarus from t'tilraa-o, W Here Me Went to Match These Two Giants for Friday at the Analtrlam. . George Kennedy, the wrestling promoter. has addressed a letter to th sporting edi tor Of The Bee, r. which he Says he Is nt msnager of Youslff Mahmout. the big Turk, who Is to wrestle Raoul de Rouen, the gi gantic Frenchman, at theAudltorlum Fri day night. Also he denies that Jess West ergaard was crowded out after accepting the challenge sent by the Turk to the win ner of the Westergaard-de Rouen match. Mr. Kennedy writes at much length and goes Into detail in order to establish his statement that he has "nothing to do with Mahmout." He says Joe Coffey, president and matchmaker for the Empire Athletic club of Chicago Is the Turk'a manager and that all engagements tor the Turk must be made through Coffey. He said the present engegament, the match of Friday night, was made by Manager Glllan cf the Audi torium, with Coffey In Chicago after three-fourths" of a day was spent In tha negotiations. Mr. Glllan, . who returned Monday from Chicago, confirmed this statement. As to Jess Westergaard having been crowded out, Kennedy says: , "Westergaard was offered the match, but declined It because he didn't feel, any too well at the time. I will make you a pres ent of SJ00 If you can get Westergaard In the ring with Mahmout." Kennedy Insists that the Frenchman and the Turk are two of the best men In tho world and that the winner of Friday night's match will try for a contest with Gotch. Referring to Mahmout's challenge of the winner of the Westergaard-de Rouen match In Omaha announced at the ringside. Ken nedy says: "This man Mahmout, has two managers and one of them asked me to aske the winner of the Westergaard-de Rouen match to meet Mahmout and I did so, and when one manager told tho oflier what he had asked me to do the reply he got was all business through manager A, so this Is the telegram that was sent. Westergaard Is not within reach Just now, but Mr. Glllan confirms what Ken nedy says as to Jess not wanting to meet the Turk for a while. Jes Says Barns la Better. Westergaard made thes remark after his match with the Frenchman that he beileved Farmer Burns, In his best trim, could beat either do Raoul or Mahmout, though he did not try to say that both these giants were not good men. Their tremendous weight and strngth give them an advantage which is hard for a man like Burns to overcome. Burns weighs 170, wnne me Turk weighs 198 and the Frenchman 240. Conceding that the Farmer probably knows mora about the game than either of these men ever will, his age 8 oou pled with his light weight, would placo him at a great disadvantage against either one. Yet all these things considered, the popular feeling In Omaha Is that the old man would dis pose of de Rouel without serious dlfflcutly, and beat Mahmout after a hard struggle But Burns doesn't want to do such heavy worlt for a while. He ssld some weens ago though with no referennce specially to either of these fellows, that while he still felt good for several years of hard work he preferred to let, the weighty chaps alone, far oven -though not as good wrestlers as soma lighter men, working against them was wearing and tearing on him and he did not want to undertake It unless neces sary. Mr. Kennedy's views to the contrary not withstanding, there is still ample belief In Omaha that Jess Westergaard Is a better wrestler than the Frenchman and would have beaten him In their match had It gone to the finish. From Indications It appears that a large crowd will turn out Friday night to see the two big fellows go It. Manager Glllan says the aeat sale Is going on rapidly al ready. There Is no reaso nwhy these men should not put up one of the best matches ever seen at the Aurltorlum. .."Athletlea ts. Society. IOWA CITY. Ia.. Feb. 1.

M. C. A. Satardny.. The old rivals. Omaha and South' Omaha High schools, will clash in a basket ball game Saturday night. The contest will be played on the floor of the Young Mens Christian association and will start promptly at s o'clock. Both teama ahve made a fine showing so far this season and as neither haa been defeated the game will be watched with a good deal of interest. Last yesr the Omaha boya defeated the packers by a very close margin and the latter team Is determined to make good the loss. Tho local team has been greaily strength ened by the return of Nagl, who waa can tain last year and one o fthe beat players on the team. McWhinney at center is Im proving rapidly and will soon be as valua ble a man on the team as was Arnsteln. who made such a nenvlablo record last year. The preliminary .game Is creating almost as much interest aa the big contest. Last week Morris Cohen, a former star of the South Omaha team, met Coach Cherrlnaton and Issued a challenge to the alumni of the Omaha High. Aa Cherrlngton is a graduate of the local school and waa a member of the basket ball team during the four yeara he attended there, he could not let the deft go unanswered. Accordingly It was agreed that a team representing the alumni of South Omaha waa to meet the alumn of Omaha In a preliminary game next Saturday- night. Two former atars on the South Omaha team are now on the Stale unlveraity squad. These men have been sent for and Cohen feels sure thst he will have a winning team, on the other hand Omaha contains many graduatea of the high achool who were playera on the team and Coach Cherrlngton says that his bunch will make them go aome if they win. At a meeting of the high school basket ball team held yesterday afternoon Edward Burdlck was chosen captain for the coming sehson. Burdlck hss been a member of the team for three seasons and has well earned the honor wnicn nis team amtes have be stowed upon him.

Defended the Aeenaed. OMAHA, Feb. l.-TO the Editor of The Bee: The letter of Judge Sears in his attempted defense of .Lawyer Daniel, Canon Bell and Dean Beecher, demonstrates what knew at the outset, that In the trial of the Wetmore case I -was up agajnst a pretty hard combination. If on that trial In addressing Judge Bears, I had only em ployed the words once addressed to the fair Portia during her brief career as a trial judge and had exclaimed "A Daniel coma to judgment. Yea, a Daniel! O wise Judge, how I do honor thee!" and had lauded the preachera to the skies in place of criticising their efforts to outdo Sher lock Holmes, I would have been a good citizen and a worthy member of the legal profession in place if a target for abuse and denunciation. But, what would have become of my clientT He probably, by this time, regard less of his guilt or Innocence would have been on his way to Lincoln.. I had a duty to perform as well as the court and that was to use all honorable means at my command In the defense of my client. This I did and nothing more. My criticism of witnesses -waa Justified, by the record they made. My objections to the course taken by Judge Sears , had justice and liberty for their basis. And, right here is to be found tho Irri tating sand-burr that caused Judge Sears to come down from the Judicial bench and recklessly rush Into public print as the self constituted defender of his former conferees. It was shown on the cross- examination of Canon Bell that aecret conferencea with Judge Sears had been had, having for their purpose the indic'ment and convlctment of Wetmore and that Judge Bears who later on waa to hold the scales of justice between the state and the defendant had advised both Canon Bell and Dean Beecher that the alleged con fession of Wetmore in the Gardner Mem orial Parish house was proper to be revealed. What of the Defendant. Under these conditions what show had the defendant for his liberty? Even the ques tion of the admissibility of testimony had been determined in advance of the trial and the attorneys for the defendant were fore closed1 before their objections could be made. Like the horse that was beaten in the race before he started, they could not possibly, win. It certainly was bad enough for the preachers to abandon their sacred railing and in the Interest of pretended re form become sleuths in the Third ward. In their case, however, the end might Justify the means. But who can justify the course ot a trial Judge who becomes both accuser and prosecutor and commits himself in ad vance to the decision of questions which must ultimately arise upon the trial? When this waa ahown by the cross-examination of Canon Bell, Judge Bears un dertook to Justify his action by a statement. To this I objected on the ground that the defendant was not present at these confer ences and that if the Judge was to give his eraion ot the affair it should be by sworn testimony upon the witness stand, with the right on our part of cross-examination. The judge then announced he would make hla statement In some other way at aome other time. Tills episode in the trial was i no of the Irritating aandbura to disturbing to juUiciaJ equanimity. Judge Sears In Ills letter says he adds his word to the Interest of good ritisenshlp becuuse the mouths of the witnesses ara closed. Who closed them? Why are they closed? They certainly were not- closed when trying to swear Wetmore into the penitentiary. The idea thut lawyer Dan iel's mouth la closed. ' so that ha cannot make defense for himself. Wtiy, even Dsaa Ottchrr b his pulpit, ana ss tnusx who have read the newspapers know, he already has ued it in his own vindication. No, the letter of Judge Senrs was not written In the Interest of these witnesses. It was wrKten because he, as accuser, prosecutor and trial Judge, was not spared on the Wetmore trial any mote than Canon Bell. Ho fh-st scored the Jury. He then jumps on me. But, In doing thli. he for gets that he no longer occupies the pro tected position of Judge, who, like the king, "can do no wrong." By rushing into print he becomes plain Mr. Sears from Tekamah. In repelling his assaults I do not even unve lo refer to him aa "Your honor." This Is certainly a relief. When in his court I will endeavor, as I always have, to show for him the respect his Judi cial position entitlea him to receive. But, when off the bench,-. I will treat him as he deserves. If he wants to go into a re cital or comparison ot recctds, I will gladly accommodate him. Power of the Court. Cne thing, however, I wish to say at this time, and that is tltt his reference to re moving me from the Wetmore Cane or any othur cases strikes no terror to my soul. I recognize that a Judge on the bench for the time being has power equal to that of the czar of Russia and that such power can be as arbitrarily exercised as hy that despot. But, Judge Soars shoull know that he has- uo. legal right to remove 01 displace any attorney in the trial of any case. It may be such is his idea until r the law In Burt county, but it la not tlie law bb unanimously declared by the highest courts of the land. A defendant, tindeu the constitution, has tho, right to a Jury trial and to make de fense by counsel of his own selection. The tight of an attorney to ap pear In '.he trial of any case Is a property right that cannot be taken from him except upon proper charges and a regulur trial. If Judge Seara can catch me for contempt he Is welcome to do so. When I am In his court, however, I will try and keep out of reach of the grappling hooks. Some years ago a distinguished attorney, while making his argument, was harshly called down by an arbitrary trial Judge with the query, "Are you trying, Mr. Choate, to show contempt for the court?" "No, your honor," replied that dlstin- r : ' guished barrister, "I am doing the boat I can to conceal my contempt for the court." This precedent, when necessity requires, I will always try and follow. I am thank ful, however, that the occasion for doing so Is rare. For more than twenty-five years I have been engaged In the trial of cases. Never , but once have I been charged with contempt and even this charge was held insufficient by the supreme court. As a rule, the Douglas county bar has been greatly favored with able and reasonable judges. In the list headed by Judge Lake, followed by such eminent lawyers as Wake lay, Doane and Savage, we can Include the pt-esent Incumbents, Kennedy, Redlck'. Es telle, Day and Troup. One other thing t am also thankful for and that is neither Judge Sears or any one else has ever charged nre with Incompetency or disloy alty to my client. W. J. CONNELL. PRESIDENT WRITES GILLETT Buajffestloiia of Executive Will Be Embodied In California Allen Land Bill. SACRAMENTO, Cal. Feb. 1. Governor rtillt'tt made public tonight the text of a letter received today from President Roose velt with regard to anti-Japanese legisla tion now pending Iri tho California legisla ture. President Roosevelt quotes from a letter from former Secretary of State Root to Governor Gtllett, and from a memo randum, pointing out that Mr. Root saw no objection to a law which treated all aliens alike, but that to avoid conflict with the constitution such statute should con tain an expressed provision excepting from Its operations any rights secured by treaty between the United States and foreign na tions. Mr. Roosevelt says that this view has his cordial endorsement. Definite action Will be taken during the present week, It Is said, on two Important subjects of attention In the California leg islature race-track gambling and the re striction of Japanese. In this state the law against turf gambling, modeled after the Hughes law in New York, which has al ready passed the assembly, will be made a special order of business for Tuesday. Sen ator George S. Walker, one of the sponsors for the measure, asserts that not more than five senatora will vote against it. A. M. Drew's anti-alU-n land Irill, us amended by hlmto VohfurnTto. the wishes of President Roosevelt, will he favorably reported by the conimlttoc oik Judiciary, and action may he taken on it Tuesday, for which time It probably will be made a special order of business. This bill is almost an exact duplicate of the Oklahoma law. It doea not specify that aliens must become citizens' of the ' V'nlted Slates In order to retain land or to purchase land. The bills introduced hy Grove L. JohriBnn early In the session, to prohibit Hlleim from being members of boards of directors and segregating Japanese In public schools, and segregating all undesirable aliens In resi dential districts, will lie taken up as a spe cial order of business on Wednesday. THE REMEDY FOB SODES Ml? ULCERS The combination 'of healthful vegetable ingredients of which S. S. S. ia composed, makes it an especially desirable and effective remedy in the treat ment of sores and ulcers of every kind. Since an imtmre condition of the blood is responsible lot the trouble, a medicine that can purify the blood is the only hope of a successful cure; and it should be a medicine that not only cleanses the circulation, but one that at the same time restores the blood to its normal, rich, nutritive condition. S. S. S. is lust such a remedy. It is made entirely of healing, cleansing vegetable properties, extracted from na ture's roots, herbs and barks of the forest and fields. It has long been recognized as the greatest of all blood purifiers, possessing the qualities necessary to remove everv impurity in the blood. When S. S. S. has purified the circulation, and strengthened and enriched it, sores and ulcers heal read ily and surely, because they are no longer fed and kept open by a continual discharge into them of irritating disease-laden matter from tne blood. S. S. S. brings about a healthy condition of the flesh by supplying it with rich, nourishing blood and makes a permanent and lasting cure.
